[quote name='Rescue29Engine23' post='96040' date='Apr 9 2007, 14:58 ']...Why are they detailed as Extrication/Rescue Engines? Im very curious, what do they run instead or other than the JAWs?????[/quote]
The impression I got (from when I was living in Alexandria, almost a decade ago) was that an extrication engine does only basic auto ex, such as a door pop, and that the rescue engine (then known as RE56, I believe) would handle the more complex extrications. Then again, this is about 10 years ago, so things have certainly changed.
